Stick to Local Farms is an interactive art project to support our local farms by making it fun, interesting and delicious to get to know them. The first Stick to Local Farms map was created in 2014, funded partly by a successful Kickstarter campaign with over 100 contributors, and partly by locally owned businesses taking advertising; participating farms paid only for their stickers. In 2018 we added dozens of cultural spots to the map and also stickers for locally owned businesses for a total of 37 stickers. Over 60 locally owned businesses have contributed and Ulster County Tourism pitched in to help us print in color. The 2018 map and stickers were created by Maria Reidelbach with the help of Ingrid Price.

We would love to hear from you!
